I had a tummy tuck done by Dr Brian Derby in January of 2021. I had lost 140 pounds naturally & had excess skin. Dr Derby removed 10 pounds of skin & fat. Now, my outside matches my inside!!!

I will forever be grateful for all that he has done for me & will recommend to anyone looking for his services!! -S.D.
